Syracuse on December 18th and 18th.
The call declares that the late election
demonstrated that the liquor interest
rallied its entire force against the Re.
publican candidates, and that the
Republican party, therefore, has
nothing to lose by taking an open
stand against liquor, and asserts thai
it has much to gain, as is evidenced

BERLIN,S BUDGET.
What Bismarck Talked About to
the Gear.

What Bismarck Talked About to
the Gar.
copyright 1887 by New York Associated
Press.l
BERLIN, November 10. - Though
nothing has been officially an
nounced regarding Prince Bis
marck's long interview with the Car,
it is an open secret in diplomatic cir
cles that Bismarck theoretically urged
the Gear to assist in putting an end to
Russia's economic war with Germany.
He is understood to have spoken
frankly and earnestly with the Gar,
not mincing matters, but stating
plainly what personal obstacles
existed within the Russian
government and operated against the
restoration OF amicable relations. If
the conditions proposed by Bismarck
be fulfilled there will probably be a
reconstruction of the Russian min
istry. The Gar, it is believed, is
ready to throw over De Giers, with
whom he is displeased for his deal
ings on Bulgaria and his failure to
check the Central European alliance.
Whatever is affected between Russia
and Germany will remain without in
fluence on Russia's relation toward
the triple alliance.
PRINCE FRITZ BETTER.
There was such marked improve
ment in the Crown Princes health

mother, Queen Louise, died from can
cerous tumors on her lungs.

made tonight that owingto the illness
of the Crown Prince, Prince William
will by command of the Emperor rep
resent his father in all further state
